Anyone living near Havre De Grace, Maryland???

Post by gibsonlp »

Hi guys,
I am VERY interested in this 4005: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... 0513632239
The problem is that the seller has 0 feedback and it might be a scam.

Does anyone live near Havre De Grace or might be around it on the next 3 days and has the time and willingness to check it out for me? (first - to see that it really exists and 2nd - to see if it's in as good condition as the seller claims).

Thanks in advance!
So long and thanks for all the fish!

Good luck with that if you go for it, Gil. Be careful with that 0 feedback seller.

Thank you.
I am still waiting for a response from the seller, I asked him if I can send over a friend to check out the bass for me in person.
So long and thanks for all the fish!

Thanks Steve!
I actually thought about you and I also got some nice PMs about you being an awesome guy that would help :)
When I saw how far away you live - I didn't even think about asking as it is indeed too far away...
If you happen to be in the neighborhood - that would be awesome, but I would never ask anyone to drive so far away for me.

Thanks again.

I decided to try my luck anyway, if it's a fraud - the entire deal is covered with paypal, hopfully my money will be safe. The description sounds like it is a real person. I hope everything would be fine.
So long and thanks for all the fish!

Good luck with your pursuit of this instrument Gil. I trust that it will all work out for you. :)

I sent the seller an email asking him to explain why he has no ebay feedback. So far, no reply.

Buttering him up will get you nowhere. You need to try that on Tammy, instead! :lol:
